The modes of the AX1000G

The AX1000G has three modes: Play mode, Individual mode, and Phrase Trainer mode. Play mode is the mode in which you can select a program and play it. You can select from a total of 80 programs that use high-quality effect models: 40 preset programs, and 40 user programs that allow you to freely edit the settings to create your very own sounds. When the power is first turned on, you will always be in this mode. With the factory settings, the user programs contain the same data as the preset programs. Individual mode is a mode in which you can use the foot switches (the program switches and pedal switch) to individually turn each effect block on/off as you play. It is not possible to switch programs in this mode. Use Play mode to select a programs. Phrase Trainer mode is a mode in which you can record a phrase from a CD or MD player connected to the AUX IN jack, and play it back as a loop. You can practice by playing along with the repeating loop. Since you can fix the pitch and slow down the playback speed, this is convenient for learning or practicing phrases that you have difficulty discerning. When you enter this mode, the MODULATION, PEDAL, and AMBIENCE effect blocks will automatically be turned off.

During editing, the edit icon in the display will blink.

The parameter assigned to the knob you moved Edit icon Value of the parameter

Instead of the five value knobs, you can also use the cursor switches to select parameters, and use the MASTER/VALUE switches (v, w) to adjust the value of the parameter currently shown in the name display. If you do not wish to use the DRIVE-AMP effect block, press the DRIVE-AMP effect block select switch until the LED goes dark. The DRIVE-AMP effect block is now bypassed, and the name display will indicate OFF-.
For some effects, it is not possible to simultaneously use the MODULATION and PEDAL effect blocks, or the PEDAL and AMBIENCE effect blocks. If you attempt to turn on both effect blocks in such a combination, the block that had been turned on will automatically be turned off.

Editing effects
Rotate the effect select knob of the effect block that you wish to edit, or press the corresponding effect block select switch. The effect block LED will begin blinking, indicating that it has been selected for editing. Use the effect select knob, effect block select switch, and value knobs to edit the settings.
If you wish to save the edited effect, perform the Program write operation. If you fail to do this, the effect program will revert to its original settings when you turn off the power or select a different program.

As an example, we will explain how to edit the TUBE OD (Tube Overdrive) effect of the DRIVE-AMP block. 1. If the name display indicated TUBE OD when you pressed the effect block select switch, simply continue. If not, turn the DRIVE-AMP effect select knob to the TUBE OD position. If the effect select knob was already located at TUBE OD, first select a different effect model, and then turn the knob back to TUBE OD. 2. The effect block LED will begin blinking, indicating that it has been selected for editing. (The name display will indicate the model name as TUBE OD.) If you selected a programmed effect, the ORIG icon will light. 3. The five value LEDs will light, and the corresponding value knobs will be assigned to DRIVE, LEVEL, TREBLE, MIDDLE, and BASS respectively, and will function as knobs that adjust the value of each parameter. (Refer to p.16, Effect parameters.) 4. Rotate the knobs and the sound will change. The name display will indicate the name of the parameter assigned to that knob, and the MASTER/VALUE display will indicate the value. At this time, the ORIG icon will light when the position of the knob matches the original value i.e., the value before you began editing.

Quick Editing for the DRIVE-AMP effect block

In the default state of each mode, the DRIVE-AMP effect block parameters used by the selected program are assigned to the value knobs (except when the effect is off). By rotating the respective value knobs, you will enter Edit mode (the effect block LED will blink); the name display will indicate the parameter name, the MASTER/VALUE display will show the value, and the sound will change.
If you wish to change an effect that is in use, use the effect select knobs to select the desired effect. It is not possible to edit when other functions are assigned to the value knobs, when the AX1000G is bypassed, muted, or recording in Phrase Trainer mode.
